Lets's calculate LCM of 472,118
2 | 472, 118 |
59 | 236, 59 |
4, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 4 x 1 = 472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5129/472,9802/118 is 1/472
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 472,118 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(472,118) = 118
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(472,118) x common factors =118 x 1 = 118
LCM(472,118) = ( 472 × 118 ) / 118
LCM(472,118) = 55696 / 118
LCM(472,118) = 472
